"Coalition forces launched the largest air assault in Iraq since U.S. forces invaded that country in 2003, the U.S. military confirmed Thursday.
The assault was launched in the southern Salah Ad Din province to clear a suspected insurgent operating area southeast of Samarra.
The operation, which began Thursday morning, is expected to continue for several days ahead of the Shiite Muslim holiday.
Coalition forces have dubbed the assault "Operation Swarmer," which is an operation consisting of about 1,500 soldiers in all, including the Iraqi Army's 1st Brigade, 4th Division, the 101st Airborne Division's 3rd Brigade Combat Team and the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade.
The assault is a combination of air and ground operations involving more than 200 tactical vehicles and more than 50 aircraft also participated in the operation."
This on top of Rumsfeld INCREASING troop strength.
ADD to this, Iran is next on the chopping block.
Not to leave out those "pesky documents" that show Saddam DID have contact with Al Qaeda, prior to our invasion in 2003 - AS WE HAVE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE ALL ALONG.
